Pressure washer and engine degreaser. . .


Shoot it with wd40 right after you get it wet.

there is some stuff i always get from kragen i believe its called "aircraft cleaner" this stuff is awsome. just spry it on and let it set for a few minutes and it will strip everything off, dirt, oil, paint, everything all the way down to bare metal.

That **** is strong. . . .


Do not use it on aluminum, it will turn a blackish blue.
